Six HUN-REN researchers awarded funding through the MTA Lendület Programme

The successful projects hosted by HUN-REN research institutes include:

At the HUN-REN Research Centre for Natural Sciences, Dávid Bajusz will use artificial intelligence to map drug-like chemical space through the DrugSpaceAI project, while András Füredi and his team will investigate the molecular circuitry of therapy-induced senescence, focusing on its regulation, escape pathways and therapeutic vulnerabilities.

At the HUN-REN Centre for Energy Research, Mátyás Dabóczi will explore how high-flux sunlight and perovskite photoelectrodes can be harnessed simultaneously for the upcycling of plastic waste and the production of hydrogen.

At the HUN-REN Research Centre for Astronomy and Earth Sciences, Emma Kun and her team will investigate the identification of cosmic particle accelerators through multi-messenger astronomy.

At the HUN-REN Centre for Ecological Research, Attila Lengyel and his research group will examine the introduction pathways of emerging non-native plant species in Hungary and assess their invasion risk.

At the HUN-REN Wigner Research Centre for Physics, Levente Rózsa will investigate the emergence of quantum robustness from magnetic order.

We congratulate our researchers on receiving this prestigious support and wish them every success with their projects.
